Posted December 18, 200519 yr This is my new budgie he/she is already stepping up on my finger, and I just got her today! I dont know what I am going to name him/her. a little blurry
December 18, 200519 yr Pretty little birdie, must get a dig camera in the New Year so I can send pics as well!
December 18, 200519 yr Author thank you here is one more picture of her. Yeah I think its a female I am not sure, if she is a dominant pied then I think its a she, but if its a recessive I am not sure. Can anyone help me?
December 18, 200519 yr She looks dominant pied to me. And either way, she looks female in my opinion (whether or not she's recessive or dominant pied, she's got pretty distinct white nostril rings.) She's adorable.
December 19, 200519 yr Author thank you for all the comments. One bad thing that happened today was that I noticed her droppings or poop were not coming out as good as yesterday, and some stuck to her vent and was really wet and runny. I think it was do to stress, because of her new home. The weird thing is though she is acting normal not fluffing up alot, she is chirping and running around. I called the vet to schedule an appoinment, but a few hours after I noticed it stopped and it is coming out fine, theres just the extra stuff on her feathers down there. How should I get this off of her? Should I wipe it off myself or should I spary her with water and she can clean it herself or what?
December 19, 200519 yr Have you popped a bath in there for them? If not, do, and see if she will bathe herself. If not, decide what would be less stressful to her, spraying with water, or having a quick wipe yourself.
